Beautiful snow this week with big flakes. We got about an inch. I know most people are ready for spring but our winter has been greyer than grey with very little snow. I'd love one good, heavy snowfall before spring.
A rainbow, of sorts. My winter hat, purchased at the thrift store. I believe it was hand knit and evidently unloved for someone to give it up. Now it is much-loved.
A snake skin. Ugh. I was surprised that it felt like plastic.
Some seashells have round holes near the hinges because a moon snail drills a hole in the shell to so it can eat the body inside.
I am always surprised at the colors of sea shells -- not just white but so many tan, cream, and coral tints, too.
A cheese rind! Beautiful color, interesting pattern.
Just a few photos of things that caught my attention the past two weeks.

LOVE all these snapshots! I haven't baked in a while -- your bread is tempting.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Jeanne. The bread recipe is so easy. I think there are only 4 ingredients, a few minutes to mix it, let it rest, form and let rise, a few minutes to bake a loaf, store it in the refrigerator and bake another loaf the next day. It's from the book, "Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day."
DeleteBeautiful photos! And lovely bread! Is it the No Knead/ Dutch oven kind? Yours is prettier than mine.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lizzy. The bread is no knead but not Dutch Oven. I baked it on a pizza stone. The recipe comes from the book, "Artisan Bread if 5 Minutes a Day." My loaves usually have an x on the top, just two slices with the knife before baking. This time I decided to try something different, just to see. When I poked the knife in my daughter, watching, gasped, as if I'd made a horrible mistake. It wasn't a perfect looking loaf but it tasted great. I think yours looked beautiful, too!
